Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of ketamine on intraoperative motor evoked potentials in adult patients undergoing thoracolumbar spinal fusions. Participants will undergo a standard anesthetic. In addition to the standard anesthetic, the patients will be administered increasing doses of ketamine with motor-evoked potentials being measured at each dose, to assess any impacts.
Unplanned re-operation is one of the common negative indicators reflecting the quality and safety of surgery in the medical industry and has become one of the ten goals for the improvement of national medical quality and safety in China since 2022, while about 40% of unplanned re-operations in Peking University Third Hospital in recent years occur in spine patients of the orthopedics department. This project intends to establish a high-quality and sustainable ambispective disease cohort for spine surgery in Peking University Third Hospital based on the unplanned re-operations that occurred in the Orthopedics Department of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2012 to December 2025. The investigators further summarize and analyze clinical causes and risk factors of re-operations, aiming to explore scientific coping strategies and provide reference for continuous improvement of medical service quality.
Vertebra is one of the most common site of metastatic disease, which may cause severe pain or neurological deficit. Debulking surgery usually has better local control and survival benefit as compared with decompression or radiotherapy. However, debulking surgery often accompany with massive blood loss, which may cause hemorrhagic shock or death. The major bleeding point during operation including tumor parenchyma, arteries that are difficult to ligate, and epidural venous plexus. Vascularity of tumor parenchyma had been associated with increased intraoperative blood loss, on the other hand, there is a lack in the literature regarding to evaluation of the size, flow and pressure of epidural venous plexus, and their changes after embolization.
